A visit to the Tin Mountain mine ON
"Wednesday would have effectnally dis
PEELED all doubt as TO the surprising
richness Of the ore now being extracted
from that valuable mine, had we enter
tanned a doubt in this direction. The
ore being mined upon the apex of this
lofty dixie may be said to be fairly
phenomenal in the unparalleled amount
of cass:.erite which it contains, and
which, in Il judgment forms at least
seventy-five per cent Of the entire mass.
This quality of ore is not, nor could it
reasonably be expected to be, common
to the entire body, but is found in a
body two or three feet in width, which
to Us showed every indication Of widen
ing as depth is attained. We found that
work upon the mill was progressing
satisfactorily, and were assured by the
superintendent that 1t would be in oper
alton in sixty days. Our visit was
made pleasant and agreeable by the
kindly attentions shown us by Mr..
Sivyer. the superintendent, and Mr..
Fowler, a prominent Chicago member
of the company, who was present'in.
speeding the property. We were greatly
pleased with the promising outlook foi
the successful issue of the Tin Mountain
enterprise, which now shows favorable
symptoms of important results in th,
future.

The owners Of the Omega gold lode
are making arrangements toward the
thorough development of that now
somewhat noted property. Mr.. Hamii-
ton, the principal owner, will, in a few
days, take up his residence at the mine,
and superintend its operation. Much
interest is manifested in the develop
nent Of this property, the ore of which,
by repeated assays, having been shown
to be of such valuable character.

sufficient to warrant a large attendance

H.. w. Fowler, of Chicago, who has
spent a number of days since his arrival
on the 9th inst. in the inspection of the
Tin Mountain Mining property, in
which he is largely interested, expressed
much confidence in its merits, which
even in the limited amount of develop
ment made since his arrival, has reach
ed a higher standard than he could
reasonably have anticipated. We learn
that the GRE thrown out by a blast on
Friday, the 9TH inst, exceeded in value
that Of any hitherto found in this mine.
The cassitterite contained in the ore
referred to is believed to have formed
at least three-fourths of the entire mass;
and the opinion was expressed by Mr..
Fowler. that from five IONS Of this ore,
one ton Of metallic tin could be obtained.
The question of tin in the Warren gulch
district has long ago been Invested of its
features, and it now only re-
mains to be demonstrated whether or
not it Is to become the future banner
district Of the tin belt.

Kinney are the fortunate owners Of a
new tin location on the south end Of the
Tin Reef group, recently discovered,
and which promises to become promi-
nent among the valuable tin locations
of this immediate section. This new
find is probably less distant from this
place than any tin location of promi-
mi yet made, being less than one
mile from the city limits. Much conf
dence is manifested in the merits of the
newly discovered tin bonanza.

The presence of an unusually large
number of ladies on our streets for the
past few days has been the subject of
much comment, and for a time caused
considerable inquiry as to the cause,
which was finally ascertained to have
been occasioned by the arrival Of the
most attractive line Of flannel dress
goods at Smith & Fitch's ever displayed
in this city. Those Tricot dress 1annels,
which are now SO fashionable in the
east, are simply irresistible.

Deadwood capitalists are reported to
be on the eve of undertaking a narrow
gauge railroad enterprise, with the view
to connecting that city with outlying
mining camps. Local railroad enter
prises are somewhat uncertain in their
realization, and should this one fail to
connect, which heaven forefend, it will
not be the first scheme of this char
acter that has been ruthlessly permitted
to chill and die in the preliminary shell

1t is a gratifying fact, that notwith.
standing the wonderful discoveries
made in the Iron Hill mine, and the
largely increased output, that the peo-
pie Of the northern Hills are still in
possession of their heads. This fact is
very clearly indicated by the market
value Of the stock, which remains SUBJ
stantially at So per share, which, taking
into consideration the present status of
the mine may be said to be less than it's
actual value. 1t is to be hoped that
this stock may escape the degree of in
it experienced last year, and that
It's market value may only advance with
its increasing merits.

THE ROTTEN EGG ARGUMENT.


MERIDIAN, TEN, June "A, 1851.
/ To the Editor of the Gazette.
! \ great many rumors are in circulation as to
! The number of places In Texas where eggs,
whisky bottles, etc, have been used to disturb
public meetings. If you will give US the truth
and the full facts It VIII live Information that
Will be of service to the public Please give
the times, places and number Of persons en-
gagged in the Disturbances, number of cases pos
ccuted and the disposition mad c of them. Was
the meeting conducted in the interest of the
Pros. or the Antis, and who was the speaker at
the time of the disturbance Yours,
BOsQUE
In reply 70 it's correspondent, The GA
zETTE cannot give dates and names of
speakers who were answered with rotten
eggs, empty whisky TASKS, etc, without
taking more time to go over the files than
is compatible with prompt reply. The
following instances, however, are now
recalled as having been printed in The
GAZETTE at the time the Interruptions
occurred:
at Whitesboro a prohibition speaker
was rotten-egged.
At Italy, Ellis county, prohibition
speaker Yves rotten-egged.
AT the same place another prohibition
meeting was broken up by rotten eggs
and lady injured by being struck with
an empty whisky flask.
At San Antonio Rev Mr.. Sutherland
and Bishop Turner were rotten-egged
and the prohibition meeting broken up.
No prosecution for any Of :bese ofenses
have been made except at San Antonio.
So for as THE GAZETTE is aware no
anti-prohibition meeting has been inter
tered with, and al the. interferences have
been with prohibition meetings.
No record was sent THE GAZETTE Of
the number of those engaged in the
but, generally speaking, g
sufictency of rotten eggs is of more
potency than any number of mere men in
breaking up a public meeting.
